There’s no way Kentucky is a loyalist state. I know that’s not your perspective, necessarily.

I deliberately stopped reading at your prompt, to avoid spoilers. But other reviews have criticized the regional split as being unrealistic. Whatever. It's a movie. And if you recommend, then that counts for me. Thanks.

Evidently liberals think this movie should have been a giant campaign video. For the Dems. Can't wait to see it, thanks for the review!!! Also I do like Nick Offerman in anything. Plemons is married to Kirsten Dunst, and, IMO, we don't see enough of them in movies these days.

Makes sense to see this one, OB. I'd imagine that with another civil war, the split would be along class lines and depending on the propaganda, factions who are sick of the America they ended up with, or sick for the one that once was.

I remember reading an early review from a predictable news source and a review of it where the critic couldn't "find if the movie had any point".... Right here, buddy... It would hit you between the eyes ..."

That's a great price for a comfort easy chair show with eats and a brew. They need that in the Eastern suburbs of Pittsburgh.

Thanks for the movie review. Sounds interesting. I'll be looking for it on my library's DVD shelves, as I can't afford first run movies even with the senior discount. (And I need the closed captioning.)

Curious, do you see a civil war breaking down on geographical lines like this, or more urban vs rural lines? I tend to lean towards the latter, with it then edging into race war chaos for those stuck in urban centers.
